The Internet Newspaper as Liz Sees It

[video description: trailer for the film “Easy A”. Plot is that a high school girl pretends to have sex with a guy at a party to help his reputation. She starts doing this for lots of guys and earns the reputation of a ‘slut’.]

I actually think this looks really funny. And has quite a bit of potential to turn slut shaming on its head. I think/hope it’s going to show how ridiculous it is to judge a person by their perceived sexuality. 

(Based solely on the trailer, the only problematic thing I see is that one of the guys is gay, and pursues the fake sex to make people think he’s straight. Problematic because being gay shouldn’t be a bad thing. But truthful for a lot of high school students, I imagine).
